My everyday players nothing but merry windows!

I know the wrapless Jacoby isn't a merry window but it is deserving of its place in this picture.

1st cue: wrapless Jacoby one of his earliest jump/breaks 1998 all tiger maple

2nd cue: 1990's stained Birdseye merry window schon with 3 sets of silver railroad rings (backup cue that's doesn't get used)

3rd cue: 2003 custom merry window Jacoby Birdseye forarm with cocobolo and silver rings at all places and a cocobolo joint with cocobolo shaft coller (my main and only player!)

THANKS FOR THE GREAT THREAD!
MERRY WINDOW CUES IN MY OPINION LOOK BETTER THAN ANYTHING ELSE...

Two original shafts and two shafts built by John Showman. All five pieces are straight. I am the only owner of the cue and still play league 8-ball with it each week.

Do you consider this a merry widow?


I don't consider it a widow.I thought a widow is 1 kind of wood w/no points .And a cue with points and NO veneers is a 'plain jane'.
Ok here come the corrections ,lol.I'll get the popcorn......
